Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence and Linguistics. In NLP, the formal analyzer plays an important role in processing different forms of human language for formal writing and reading. A formal analyzer supplies information concerning morphosyntactic properties of the words it analyses or constructs. Formal Analysis is an important component for building computational grammars as well as Machine Translation. The formal analyzer mainly deals with the study of the internal structure of the words based on its grammatical features of any language. Malayalam is morphologically rich and agglutinative language. The proposed system aims to return 'root/stem' of a word along with its grammatical information depending upon its word category using string matching algorithm
